Dave is outstanding. Have been taking cars there for over a decade (!) He is fair and is extremely reasonable. I keep buying BMWs because I know he can take care of them when they go off warranty.

The guys at Independent do good work and a person can save money by avoiding going to MB Dealer service center.

I have a 2004 E320 MBZ w 198,000 miles. I love my car and it looks brand new. Dave has become my new best friend and helps me keep my Benz on the road. Honest, fast and reasonable!Love this guy! I would strongly recommend him. He saved me $4000 over another autoshop.

I don’t think he takes me serious. I took my car in a week ago and still can’t get a clear answer of what the problem in my car is. I call David and he hangs up on me before I can ask a question.im a paying customer and should be treated liked one. I won’t go there again

Mixed bag of feelings. While David and his team have fixed a couple issues, they also managed to massively mess up on a simple operation so we are facing a lot in fixing that mess-up.

Always honest, very reasonable prices. Theres a reason his shop is always busy. Dave even offered to stay late so that I could pick up my car at the end of the day. Highly recommended

The service is exceptional !!! Im not going to carry on about David being a trust-worthy person. He walks the talk. He is precise that is what really counts when it comes to a good mechanic. Not it might be this or that. He has loyal customers that speaks for itself. I have never been shocked by his bill when I pick up my car. If you want a job well done go see him. Used to go to Fremont and Purdon but when you are not happy with the service or prices you go elsewhere.

Over 12 years going to them and its always been best most honest service. I send anyone I know that has a German car to them and I know that they will be treated very well and that they have a mechanic for life. Great price, great service, great reputation.

The owner, David, and his mechanics are professional, no nonsense guys with a great attitude. They fix what needs to be done efficiently and at a reasonable cost. They do not try to upsell or sell me unneeded products or services. On the contrary, I sometimes have to talk them into doing the service I request if they think it isnt necessary. They are quite good at communication and always answer the phone. Occasionally the are so busy that they dont call in time to come get the vehicle when it is done, so you need to make sure you call them if you need to get your car back the same day before closing time. My only real complaint is that they fill up fast in the morning and are often so busy that I dont get my car fixed that day, and have to come back at a later date. But you cant really hold that against them, it is more of a mark of their excellence that they are often so busy. All together, they have earned my thanks and 5 star rating!

David is great at his job. Never overcharges. Often not performing some requested work due to untimely maintenance schedules on my BMW. Like; oil has 3K miles left so he says to wait. Ok.Always friendly, knowledgeable, and fast.Ive brought my German cars here now for 6+ years.And I still need to call him to check the cars status. Ok.😊

Review №31

Essentially David told me that the inactive warning light I was getting was because I needed a new TPSM on my left rear. However, when i picked it up the light continued so he told me to bring it back. When i did bring it back hoping he would solve the promblem, i hadnt heared of him for about 4 days and when i finally called him he told me i needed to take it to a tire shop to get a TPSM in the left rear tire he claimed he couldnt do it. So basically, he first charged me for a job he didnt do and then the second time he gave me half my money back for the job he didnt even do. This was compeltley inappropraite and inexceptable. If you choose to come here make sure you get your old parts back because he might not even change them and charge you like he did me.
